Hi, Hopefully you've seen by now that I've just released an RC1 for Apache-Test-1.40.
The reason for this is that I'd like to make a new mod_perl release (2.0.10) soon, and it's worth getting the latest Apache-Test changes into it. I still have new test failures in mod_perl in a default configuration build on Windows. I can get back to the usual (as of mod_perl-2.0.9 / httpd-2.4) set of failures by disabling the PERL_IMPLICIT_SYS build option in perl. That's on by default, but is Windows-specific, so I'm hoping that things will be OK on other OSes. If that is indeed the case then I do not want to hold up releasing 2.0.10 over this issue because it contains support for perl >= 5.22, which is particularly important right now because CVE-2016-1238 means that all perls < the imminent 5.22.3 and 5.24.1 are insecure. (Also, perls < 5.22 are officially out of support as far as perl5-porters is concerned -- see perlpolicy.pod.) So in short, expect to see a mod_perl-2.0.10-RC1 soon after Apache-Test-1.40 is done! If anyone has any spare tuits for some pre-RC1 testing of what is currently in SVN then that could only be a good thing. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@perl.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@perl.apache.org
